Fairclough far from happy

Barnet boss Paul Fairclough was less than impressed by referee Paul Melin's performance in the Bees' 2-1 defeat at Brentford.
Fairclough's side ended the game with ten men after debutant Stevland Angus was sent off 20 minutes from time and the Underhill manager was an unhappy figure.
He fumed: "We were coping with Brentford more than adequately in the first half and then the referee played his part in the game.
"I felt it was a sending-off for them because my player had stud marks down his back, but I didn't feel that their penalties were penalties."
Former Arsenal youngster Joe O'Cearuill also made his Barnet debut at Griffin Park, coming on as a second-half substitute for Sagi Burton.
French left-back Kenny Gillet, who joined the club at the end of last week, missed out on the matchday 16.
